Installation guide

Manually drop objects before you execute procedures for the first time. The first time you run the server after an

upgrade, the server internally rebuilds procedures from the text in syscomments. The procedure may not execute

properly if it contains code that drops, then re-creates, an existing object.

Procedure

1. Go to the directory where your current version of SAP ASE is installed.

2. Enter cd in to go to the directory ASE-<version>, where <version> is your current version of SAP ASE.

3. Perform cd in to the bin directory.

4. Enter preupgrade to run the preupgrade utility.
